Advent Calendars 2024

The past few Christmases I’ve made TheGR a beer advent. 

A different beer for each day, wrapped and labelled. 




But this year, I'm shopping around! Here's a few that I’ve found:

Bonne Maman miniature preserves advent £25 available from amazon

The Ilchester Cheese Advent available from Ocado, bite sized tasters for 24 days - what's not to love! Available from Ocado - £9

For friends and fellow herbal tea drinkers, the Pukka Herbs advent is a winner. 
Available from amazon for £9.95
